I've owned a number of motorcycles of various sizes over the years. Most have usually gotten 40 to 50 mpg under most conditions. City vs highway mileage seems to be offset by bad aerodynamics at higher speeds. The best mileage numbers I ever got were 65 mpg with a Yamaha 125 enduro and 60 mpg with a Suzuki 650 Savage cruiser which was a single cylinder "thumper". Age and time have taken their tole on me so I'm currently working on a 49cc 4 cycle set up for a Schwinn bicycle that I own. The kit manufacturer claims 150 mpg, but I'm a skeptic so I'll wait and see what it actually delivers. Still anything over 100 mpg will be worthy of keeping my mini suv parked instead of taking it to the grocery store or for local errands, weather permitting of course.
